“EZkeys 2 is required to read and reply to this thread”… Why?

I’m thinking of purchasing EZKeys 2, and am trying to research pros and cons. Unfortunately, I can’t access “EZKeys 2 Help” unless I’ve already bought EZKeys 2 ?????

There appears to be way more info in the “Help” forum than is in the “Pre-Sales” section. Why are Toontrack hiding the most important forum for potential buyers?

You will notice a lot of questions are dated 2 years ago, NOT a good sign..  I own all EZ keys, drums, and bass, and Superior drums also. Toontracks products are excellent.  Having a fair amount of crashes using EZ keys/bass/drums with Logic Pro 11.  The lack of information is disheartening. It is a complex piece of programming.  I haven’t figured out  everything yet, so maybe the problem is my understanding of it.

I certainly don’t like the idea of locking non-owners out of forums.  That raises a LOT of read flags.  I bought another AI-type system for choosing chords, making parts.  I posted a message about how inadequate the explanation of how to do processes was, and I had to go through 3 companies to purchase, download, register, and find tutorials to learn it, cause the main company just has one guy showing you all the amazing things it does, without showing you how. The message was deleted in one day.

To their credit, they made purchasing, installing, and tutorials available.  Other people are making clearer and detailed instructions.  I have given up on it for now, because their progress in making it understandable is moving too slow.  I think they will catch up in time.

I’m feeling the same way about the EZ line.  It is brilliant, but too many issues.  I’ve spent hours working on the keys, bass, and drums before importing them into Logic. EZ bass will crash, forcing Logic to reload all plug-ins.  Most of my EZ line individual ‘project’ saves are not loadable. “Recent audio saves” are much more helpful, but I still lose changes I made.  Sometimes the bass plays the chords along with its bass part.  Still haven’t figured out what I am doing wrong, or if it is a bug.  The EZ Bass definitely needs to be brought up to the standard with which the EZ keys work.  Although the articulations you can put into EZ bass are tasty.

It could be a fantastic tool, and I read posts that claim that, but I have come across too many online companies now that have fake posts and mislead you to make a sale. I’ll keep plugging at it, in for a penny – in for a pound
